All I wanted was a light I could dim from my phone, and a light that had more range than “really bright” and “off”. The fact I could make them a pleasing pink was really just a bonus. That was 2015, and now in 2025 I’m looking around my house and realizing I am fast approaching having 50 of these magical bulbs. https://homeupgraded.com/2023/logi-mx-master-3-mouse-review/ Sat, 03 Jun 2023 16:00:00 +0000 https://homeupgraded.com/2023/logi-mx-master-3-mouse-review/ Last year I bought the Logi MX Master 3 and entered the exalted ranks of people who pay more than $20 for a mouse. Tl;DR: It’s probably the best mouse I’ve ever used, but every now and then it scrolls on its own. I have one for my Windows PC and the Mac-specific model for use with my MacBook. For years I was a staunch holdout against wireless devices, preferring the connectivity and power guarantees over the supposed “freedom” of wireless-ness. https://homeupgraded.com/2019/roborock-s6-best-robot-vacuum-for-hard-floors-long-hair-and-messy-kids/ Sat, 30 Nov 2019 16:35:00 +0000 https://homeupgraded.com/2019/roborock-s6-best-robot-vacuum-for-hard-floors-long-hair-and-messy-kids/ 2025 update: The robot is now 7 years old and we still use it every few days. It has held up fabulously with minimal maintenance and no serious problems. The model in this article has since been replaced by the “S7” model. TL;DR: It’s a great vacuum and it’s still working hard for us 7 years after I originally wrote this post in 2019. It’s hands-off and easy to use, rarely needs maintenance, and the only annoyance we’ve experienced was when we moved the dock and had to re-map the house.
